So the wailing wall wasn't built by Jews

[joboo]

They've been going there day after day pouring their guts out in super holy mode to wall built by non Jews.

Fucking hilarious. I love archaeology.

"The man usually credited with building the compound known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary is Herod, a Jewish ruler who died in 4 B.C. Herod's monumental compound replaced and expanded a much older Jewish temple complex on the same site.

But archaeologists with the Israel Antiquities Authority now say diggers have found coins underneath the massive foundation stones of the compound's

Western Wall that were stamped by a Roman proconsul 20 years after Herod's death.



That indicates that Herod did not build the wall — part of which is venerated as Judaism's holiest prayer site — and that construction was not close to being complete when he died."


2 coins in some dirt...poof goes the illusion.

That so called "holy wall" is nothing more than the left over of a Roman fortress..... real wall was about 1/2 mile away, I saw the old prints about the fortress and its location about six years ago.....saw them only once and then they were gone.

I think I saw it on the history channel a year or so ago "the naked archeologist" where they did ultrasound of the temple mount which clearly shows the exact outline of the temple discription, and like you said the wall they cry over is supposedly the wall of a Roman temple to Jupiter.

But "facts" are not important to them if it goes against the accepted story [most of us here know that]. I'm surprised NBC ran the story; but either way, I don't see the "historians" running out to change the text books in our schools. They will continue to give the history they want us to see.

Any "facts" that go in their favor they will accept and use like a battering ram. Any "facts" that don't they will twist and contort to suit them, or use them as a weapon to put others down. IE "Anti-semitism".

As of yet I haven't read a single article that places the Jews in Palestine or that they were even the slaves of the Egyptians, the now Jews simply adopted the Bible according to their needs.........I just finished a book written by a Jew by the name of "The Wandering Who?"........The Jewish religion is only a cult and has nothing to do with what we call religion, they adapt their "religion" according to their needs.
